A revised Grand Station development planned

A few years back, McWhinney had plans for something called Grand Station. When might we see something happen out there?

Dear Curious:

Grand Station as originally presented in 2007 isn't going to happen, according to Jay Hardy, vice president and general manager with McWhinney. But the developer still has plans for the 110-acre property east of The Promenade Shops at Centerra.

Originally, Grand Station was to feature "vertical mixed-use" development, with stores on the ground floor and offices and residential above, Hardy said. The recession and real estate crash shoved that plan onto the shelf.

Now that the market is coming back, McWhinney is in the planning stages of developing the property in a more "horizontal" fashion, Hardy said. "So what we'll be doing is the same product types, but it may be a retail area next to an office next to a hotel next to apartments as individual units. So the product types will roll out over a longer period of time."
